Hi all - I have a Galaga that has the text showing up twice. It also does not show the lives remaining and level. Three photos attached.

Is this a common failure? Chip that may be the likely culprit? I've cleaned the legs of all the socketed chips and the resistor packs have been replaced by a previous owner.

I have one more board that I am trying to get going. This one I can't get to boot. I have a starfield and some blockiness.

I've isolated it to the video board:

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
